I guess they need to pay for that new ground of theirs.

[Jimmy]

Maybe they have to pay for the pitch when it gets delivered this week.

[Guest]

And don't forget the TV money - possible upset and all that!!

For anyone who's interested (just me then), the sale of the land that Eton Park was on covered the costs - or so I heard at the time.

[mikefleet]

in their programme on saturday they are building homes on it, so think they will get the money back from that.

Keep on milking that cash cow

[American FLEET FAN No1]

Just goes to prove how vital a good Commercial Manager is!

[Slartibartfast]

I hope someone at the Fleet is taking notes, should we be fortunate enough to be in Burtons position next year I would hope we would milk it too.

Fat chance Slarti.

When we played Notts Co, ludicrous club policy decreed no more than 2 tickets per person.

As a result many couldn't take mates to what was a "big" televised game, which should have reaped a capacity crowd.

They probably watched the game in their local.

In the end we could even get 3000 through the turnstiles.

Mistakes often have to be learned the hard way, but if we do get lucky, let us be sure we can actually fill the ground before imposing strange restrictions on ticket sales.

It was 4 tickets per person and was brought in because when it was announced that there would be no limit everybody came on here and complained that they wouldn't be able to get tickets and that they would all go to "glory hunters".

So don't go complaining when the club then changes it policy to do what the fans ask for!

Dave,

...as always....you're right again !!
